Slave cylinder was leaking, ran it dry on the road. Jammed it into 3rd 1 time. could get it back into second after having to kill it at a light. Got it home putting in 2nd. Now that I've replaced the slave cylinder and bled the system I've come to realize it is stuck in gear, I assume 3rd.
I can get the truck started by holding the clutch down so I'm assuming that my clutch is fine. However, I cannot get it into neutral and when I put it into reverse it just dies.
Truck has a 360 motor not sure what kind of trans but I do know its a manual 5 spd with High Low.
Ive read a few posts about the shift rails possibly being jammed and heard that sometimes the 2 spd can hang up when trying to shift in and out of gears.
Today I will be pulling the top of the trans off in an Attempt to check the shift rails.
I honestly have very little experience with transmissions and worry I wont be able to identify the issue even if its staring me in my face.
If anyone one has any insight on this please post.
I was able to take the top of the trans off and found a couple of issues right off the bat.
The truck was definitely stuck in a forward gear. the middle plate that the forks are supposed to grab was stuck to one of the gears. I was able to move it back off the gear and it is free now. I am hoping this puts my trans back into TRUE neutral.
As for the shift forks... well you can look at the pictures... Do you know where I could get replacements?
I am now in the process of draining the gear oil in hopes of retrieving the broken fork and pads...
